>Yet 14,000 accounts were breached in one go? That part isn't super surprising beyond the technical issue of the data usurpers probably not being metered or flagged for continuously logging into different accounts. They could have used a massively distributed network to pull all the data, but there probably simply wasn't the detection or protection. Having said that, in logging into my account to verify how many relatives are shown to add this response, 23andme refused to let me login and demanded that I reset my password because of password reuse. I have always had a very strong password on this account, and it isn't reused anywhere. I even have 2FA on. So it seems that the company isn't entirely comfortable with the notion that it was reused passwords behind it... However after resetting my password that I never reused anywhere, the DNA relatives panel shows 60 pages of relatives, with each having 25 relatives. So 1500 relatives could be pulled. Grabbing that for 14000 random accounts would be a pretty formidable network someone could build.
